Problem with CESM output data

[lby]

May I ask whether the direction of FSNS, FLNS, SHFLX and LHFLX in the output data is upward or downward? For the surface, is it absorption or release?

Sign definition about SHFLX/LHFLX

Hello！ I am new to using the cesm model. I have been confusing the signs of sensible heat flux and latent heat flux output by the cesm. Are the positive values transferred from the ocean to the atmosphere or from the atmosphere to the ocean? And what about the symbol for net solar radiation...
